SOLC’s first Member Picnic and Annual Meeting in two years had all the joy and energy of the family reunions so many of us have done without during the Pandemic. Please enjoy a photo gallery of the day taken by a team of fellow community members and professionals. Also enjoy words of inspiration and knowledge from Dave Garcia (Conservation Awardee), Su Rolle who presented his award, and Executive Director Steve Wise in this recap of the day.
If you ever peer into a half-rotted log you might be so lucky to find a slippery pair of eyes staring back at you. If you’re extremely lucky those eyes could belong to a Pacific giant salamander (Dicamptodon tenebrosus). Usually seen wriggling through woody debris or eating a mildly toxic banana slug, these marbled beauties are found throughout western Oregon.
